Off the Beaten Track: England and Wales Summary

Off the Beaten Track: England and Wales: Wild drives and offbeat adventures by camper van and motorhome by Mr Martin Dorey

England and Wales might feel familiar to many, but there are countless hidden idylls and remote wildernesses to discover amongst the soaring passes, spectacular coastlines and boundless moorlands. For many, Martin's 'slow road' routes will have opened up the country's most well known highways and byways, but there is so much more to England and Wales than these, at times overcrowded, hotspots. This book is the next, natural step in Martin's wanderings around England and Wales. If Take The Slow Road whetted the appetite for a Great British adventure, this book will be the main course, filling you up with inspiring writing and beautiful imagery from the most remote and wild corners of England and Wales. It will take you to the very edges of the map, on a series of personal journeys to uncover parts of these countries that the masses never reach but wish they could. In discovering these secret and beautiful places this fabulous book shows the reader that, with a little imagination, and some effort, they too can get off the beaten track in their own country.
